No, they are both racist AND both products of their generations. The term āredskinā has been offense to Native Americans ALWAYS, but old white guys just donāt notice or care.
Its amazing how only whites are depicted as racist.
It has always been my experience the first one to play the race card is usually the bigger racist. and we all know which ethic group is fast on the draw when it comes to the race card. They even accuse their own of being racist this the do not follow the ācommunitiesā agenda.
I think the funniest thing about this controversy is that thereās a high school on the Navajo reservation in Arizona: Red Mesa High School. They call themselves the Redskins. Iād have a lot more sympathy for those who say the name is derogatory if this high school quit calling themselves the Redskins.
You make some good points. Of course Jesse Jackson is racist. So is Mel Gibson. KKK members? You have to be a racist to gain membership. Do we handle this differently in different circumstances? Of course. Is it fair? Not in the slightest.
The Dixie Chicks stated that they were embarrassed that Dubya came from the same state they did. Result? Banishment from radio, records broken, concert venues deleted.
Ted Nugent gives the double one-finger salute to both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. Offers to shoot them. Threatens that if Mr. Obama is reelected, heāll end up in jail. Consequences? He becomes the darling of Fox News.
Just another example of the unexplainables in American society.
āObamaā did no such thing. The PTO revoked the trademark in response to a complaint filed with themājust as they did the LAST time this came up, about a decade or so before Obama was elected..But enjoy your wallow in persecution.
Even today a majority of native americans does not find the Redskins logo disparaging. But it does make the politically fashionable crowd feel superior when they can pick other people out as racist.
